Herman Cain Makes A Couple of Tactical Errors

1. "Some of these idiotic reporters thought I was serious. The joke’s on them. The message was short bills. Understandable bills. No it’s not literally going to be three pages." So from now on, any Cain press conference must be re-vetted by reporters. "When you said X at the beginning, was that literal or a joke? Then in the next sentence, serious? What about sentence 3?"

2. If I followed the argument correctly, the basis for believing Obama is a racist is that he says that some white people harbored racist feelings towards him. So, isn't Cain delivering a racist screed here against John Stewart? Who's not only white, but Jewish?
